Helaman 9:2

Behold, now we will know of a surety

whether this man be a prophet

and God hath commanded him

to prophesy such marvelous things unto us.

Behold, we do not believe that he hath;

yea, we do not believe that he is a prophet;

nevertheless, if this thing

which he has said concerning the chief judge be true,

that he be dead,

then will we believe that the other words which he has spoken are true.

And it came to pass that they ran in their might,

and came in unto the judgment–seat;

and behold, the chief judge had fallen to the earth,

and did lie in his blood.

they were astonished exceedingly,

insomuch that they fell to the earth;

which Nephi had spoken concerning the chief judge.

And it came to pass that they inquired among the people, saying:

Where are the five who were sent to inquire concerning the chief judge

whether he was dead?

Concerning this five whom ye say ye have sent, we know not;

but there are five who are the murderers,

whom we have cast into prison.

Helaman 10:13

Now behold, notwithstanding that great miracle which Nephi had done

in telling them concerning the death of the chief judge,

they did harden their hearts

and did not hearken unto the words of the Lord.
